thank you MilesBerkey! it was on a side wall of mountain trail. on bare reddish soil. I found previous moss and this moss on same point. this one was around 100cm from ground, previous one was 50cm from ground. I found this moss in 2nd photo of previous moss too. :))

Is this on bark? tree base?. If so it might be Dicranowesia. I am posting a spotting of it right now. The specimen I have has no sporophytes though.
